S/C/G: 300/ticker/170

Height: 5'10"

Default 20 pounds!

As Monday is my official weigh-in day even though most of the time I wish it was on Friday since I seem to have issues putting on a pound or two over the weekend, I wish to share a picture of my current achievement.
I started at 300 pounds in October. With the news that my moms cancer was back and spread (stage 4 breast cancer with it in her pelvis, lungs, lymph nodes around her kidney and possibly stomach) I found myself emotionally eating like crazy. And we went up to visit for Christmas and New Years so of course I didn't have my own kitchen to make decent food and I chose to eat like crap rather than try. Needless to say, it has been a battle to stay on course.
But, I am officially down 20 pounds. 20 pounds in 20 weeks. I wish it was 40, but I will take it!
